Stagecoach: California's Country Music Festival

This weekend I'll be working at Stagecoach with a team from my work. We will be managing all things merchandise for the event: artist and event merch. I will mostly be vending, which will be a lot fun! I am really looking forward to the interactions I will be having with all kinds of interesting people. It is so cool to see excitement on the faces of folks who are super stoked about their favorite music and bands, and it's fascinating to see how a simple t-shirt can bring the excitement to an even greater level through feelings of personal connection.

I've never been to a country music festival...at least not to a popular country music festival. For the last 3 years I managed the California Stage at Santa Clarita's Cowboy Poetry and Music Festival. Working at Stagecoach will be all together different, and I can only imagine it will be a lot more fun.

If you are somebody who is going to attend the festival...make sure to come find me on either Saturday or Sunday at the main merchandise booth. If I'm not there, I will probably be vending at the campsite.
